Fruit Salad With Vanilla Pudding Recipe

This fruit salad recipe is topped with a creamy vanilla pudding mixture, and it makes a refreshing dessert or even a side dish for a brunch. I like to serve this fruit salad for parties, holidays and potlucks. But sometimes i make this fruit salad just for us-the kids will eat it as a snack or even breakfastThe fruit listed in the ingredient list are just suggestions--you can use any kind of soft fruit you like, such as raspberries, blackberries, diced peaches, nectarines, plums, or apricots, and if you have access to fresh pineapple, do use that as well. I often make this with sweet canned mandarin oranges, but you could use fresh oranges, clementines, or tangerines instead. Some thinly sliced apples are also nice.
